  As a lukewarm and disobedient "christian" who went to India nearly 20 years ago, the oppression and warfare I encountered in India drove me to a much humbler reliance upon the Lord, and to seek refuge in His word. To put on His armour, really. That "open" self-revelation of the enemy in that place of strongholds is really something to behold and totally opens your eyes to the way that the enemy tailors his deceptions to the environment, just as you say.

  Costi sounds nothing like his uncle who is a complete charlatan.  This is solid biblical information.

  I find James 4:7-10 very helpful.  "Resist the Devil and he will FLEE FROM YOU."

  “Lure them into the lazy river…” <br>That’s an excellent, eye-opening, sobering analogy.

  Halfway through so far, totally agree, where he said talking to missionaries he thinks the devil is much more overt in the Third World, and much more covert in the hyper rationalist West. <br><br>Checks out with missionaries I’ve talked to. And it simply makes sense since the devil knows how to tailor his approach to every audience.

  This has been very much on my heart lately. In the wake of the insanity that destroyed the G3 ministry, the attacks on Ligonier Ministries, and my own experiences I have begun praying for God&apos;s protection on my church. I realize this needs to be extended to the whole of the church of Jesus. There are many tares within the visible body (cf Luke 13) some actively doing damage, some perhaps like time bombs who Satan will set off at an opportune moment. As you said they cannot destroy us but they can do damage.<br>The one thing I would add to this discussion is that no matter what Satan &amp; co are up to they (and we!) are completely under the sovereignty of God!

  I love Koshi! He is right on on this! You have to have a balance and you have to look at everything through scripture. Just like scripture says to test the spirits that&apos;s what we need to do. And no, there isn&apos;t a demon behind every bush, so thank you for confirming what I already knew. But a lot of people still need to hear it. But yes, there are times you can actually feel a disruption I guess in the atmosphere. I&apos;m Lutheran so I&apos;m coming at this through a very logical viewpoint. But I have actually felt it and it&apos;s bizarre and it&apos;s oppressive and creepy. So don&apos;t discount it but also don&apos;t go looking for it.
